Seat weld broke on drivers seat.
I sat down on the drivers seat on 2/5/04 and it felt like the seat was loose. I looked underneath the seat and discovered the metal bracket near the left front bolt of the the seat had broken off and the seat was no longer attached to the frame. This is disturbing as this vehicle has never beed in an accident or had any unusal use and has less than 83,000 miles. I am the original owner.
